Election 2019 Results: Four years after suffering a humiliating defeat at the hands of Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal in assembly elections in national capital Delhi, the BJP has turned the table by avenging the defeat with a huge margin of victory. As per the early leads, the BJP is ahead in all seven seats and Kejriwal’s party has been reduced to third position in majority of the seat, followed by the Congress.

The Congress, which was ready to be a junior partner in the proposed pre-poll alliance in Delhi, has outsmarted Aam Aadmi Party by securing the second position in five of total 7 Lok Sabha seats in Delhi.

Only two Aam Aadmi Party candidates, Raghav Chadha from South Delhi and Gugan Singh from North West Delhi were trailing BJP candidates Ramesh Bidhuri and Hans Raj at the second position who were comfortably ahead with more than 50% vote share in early trends.
